A fake recording of a candidate saying he’d rigged the election went viral. Experts say it’s only the beginning

While the number of votes swayed by the leaked audio remains uncertain, two things are now abundantly clear: The recordings were fake, created using artificial intelligence; and US officials see the episode in Europe as a frightening harbinger of the sort of interference the United States will likely experience during the 2024 presidential election.

“As a nation, we are woefully underprepared,” said V.S. Subrahmanian, a Northwestern University professor who focuses on the intersection of AI and security.

Senior national security officials in the US have been gearing up for “deepfakes” to inject confusion among voters in a way not previously seen, a senior US official familiar with the issue told CNN. That preparation has involved contingency planning for a foreign government potentially using AI to interfere in the election.

State and federal authorities are also grappling with increased urgency to pass legislation and train election workers to respond to deepfakes, but limited resources within elections offices and inconsistent policies have led some experts to argue that the US is not equipped for the magnitude of the challenge, a CNN review found.

Already, the US has seen AI-generated disinformation in action.

In New Hampshire, a fake version of President Joe Biden’s voice was featured in robocalls that sought to discourage Democrats from participating in the primary. AI images that falsely depicted former President Donald Trump sitting with teenage girls on Jeffrey Epstein’s plane circulated on social media last month. A deepfake posted on Twitter last February portrayed a leading Democratic candidate for mayor of Chicago as indifferent toward police shootings.

Oh the misery. The CIA and those who control Biden seem to be preparing to deny evidence of guilt on the part of Biden/Hillary/Schumer/Pelosi Crime Families and basically most of our government.

"The aren't the droids you're looking for." They are going to bombard us with fakes to try to convince us we can't trust what we see and hear, that Trump stole the 2020 and that his win in 2024 will be fraudulent, and that we need the MSM to 'help' us figure it all out.

There is no evidence.
The evidence has been debunked.
That’s old, can’t we just move on?

That’s obviously generated by an AI.

You cannot convict a Democrat of anything under any circumstances because, no matter how you slice it, your evidence is never good enough.

All those videos of Brandon shuffling, mumbling and falling down are AI generated. (Soon-to-be claim from MSM)

Has anyone ever done serious research on the infamous “grab them by the p***y” audio?

Concern over fake recordings but so far zero concern over a Russia collusion hoax that went on for years, cost taxpayers millions, harmed innocent people financially, hindered a sitting President from doing his job 100%, divided the nation, harmed international relations, and helped Joe Biden - one of the worst Presidents in US history - take power.

And to date not one person has been held accountable especially the Queen demon bitch who started it all because she refused to take responsibility for losing because she refused to campaign and who continues to live like royalty.

Well Democrats have already altered that. They keep claiming Trump admitted that he assaulted women, but he did no such thing. He never said he did. He said “they let YOU” he didn’t say “they let ME” which could very well mean it’s what he observed, and I observed it!

In the early 1990s I was in a club in Manhattan and Mike Tyson walked in and right away all these women crowded around him, started pawing him, groping him, I couldn’t believe it. So he started doing the same. So if I described this later on exactly as Trump described it, does that mean I grope women? Of course not, but that’s exactly what they accused Trump of doing even though he never said he did.

The flip side of that is if they say it then it is true because they said it.

I agree. If anybody is going to engage in this type of behavior it will be the left under a false-flag cover.

Imagine that. Our psyop propogandist masters sreaming unfair when foreign countries use AI generated material as a psyop to as proof of what the MAGA conspiracy of unwashed distreputable losers have been claiming.

There is a way to fix this. Create an election system of in person with NOTDEEPFAKE REAL ID paper ballot voting with clear chain of custody control and transparent vote totals - e.g. precinct totals made public that can be vouced for by vote counters representing both sides and counting on serialized tamper proof expensive to counterfeit ballots.

No absentee ballots except military and state deparment [did I say that - scratch these treasonous [biden expletive] ] with oversees postings at the time of the election.

False flag. Democrat scum intend to criminalize discussing election corruption.

So they are building a foundation.

That was my reaction as well.

This is the way the Left does business.

An election that may not or cannot be verified is meaningless. It’s based on the principle of might makes right, and is certainly not democratic. The clamor about “election deniers”, “insurrection” and “election interference” is designed to drown out those simple truths.

According to the filthy scumbag propagandist at CNN, the Hunter Biden laptop story is Russian disinformation because 51 government officials said so.

In 11 months, Curt Devine, Donie O’Sullivan and Sean Lyngaas will be out of a job and sitting in a Gitmo prison awaiting their execution. /spit

It would only take one to be released and they would trumpet it as “faked AI videos” only referencing that one to give the impression to voters that all of them were.

If they were able to tell that it was fake, then that is more than half the battle.

Yeah and what we’re also going to see is when they do get caught they will claim it’s a deep fake.
